Wednesday

It seems that Jesus lingered in Bethany when he got back "home" Tuesday night. Scripture is silent about what Jesus did in the middle of this agonizing week...and perhaps that is because Jesus silently retreated with those whom He loved and with those who knew Him best. Did the disciples know that he would be handed over tomorrow? Did they know that this would be the last night he would spend at Bethany? Jesus would never sleep again after this Wednesday night. He was in the company of friends. Even so, he must have felt the pain that all would forsake him soon. Could Jesus even sleep? Was He ready to be parted? Was He ready to give up being fully man?
